Joey Barton scores. Takes his total for the season up to one, I believe.

[Ronniekirk]

His first touch of the ball as well!

Wonder if he had a bet on himself doing that

[HibbyKeith]

Chance for Boyle,

Clean through on the keeper and drags his shot wide.

[Lendo]

How long left?

A certain Joey Barton scores for Burnley, oops not allowed to post that:greengrin

Commons replaced by Forster

[HibbyKeith]

Hibs free kick on the edge of the D...

Commons on the bench so McGinn to take but he shoots wide.

[Ronniekirk]

For some reason i am confident we will hold on

That sounded like a very comfortable victory.

[LithgaeHibby]

Thank God for that. With a bit of luck let's hope that that's the last time we have to see that sh***y ground for a good few years.

*ding ding * All aboaaaaard *? 😀

3-3 at Tannadice. 6 points clear now. Great result.

[Heisenberg]

Great win. Keeping Commons would be such a huge boost to our season and the squad. Hope it happens.

[TrinityHibs]

and +15 on goals

[Unseen work]

Well done hibs.

3 points and a clean sheet.

[Thecat23]

Superb result, 6 clear and pushing on. Let's smash it Hibs.

[Bishop Hibee]

A struggle by the sounds of it but 6 points ahead with a far superior goal difference is decent. Bring on the Rose 🏆

[Stevie Reid]

There were some folk complaining earlier this season that we 'only' beat Dumbarton 1-0 in the eariler away fixture. Well we've gained six points on Utd from our corresponding away games at Dumbarton, and are now six clear.

[NAE NOOKIE]

Sounds like we made hard work of that, even though its a pain that Utd equalised right at the end its still 6 points clear with a massive goal difference and I would have settled for that at the start of the day :greengrin

Even better, we now have our away fixtures against Falkirk and Dumbarton out of the way, two fixtures I hate ..... onwards and upwards :thumbsup:

[Northernhibee]

Dumbarton is a very tough place to go. A good three points and means we're now two wins clear at the top with a superior goal difference.

[WS Hibs]

We all knew before the start of the season that we needed to grind out results like that. Six points clear, mon the Hibs.

[DaveF]

oh hark you

You are very welcome

[SlickShoes]

A good win, think people underestimate just how hard it is to go to a park like that and win by actually playing football.

[Johnny_Leith]

Outstanding Hibs, keep it up!

[Stevie Reid]

Goal difference means we are effectively seven clear. Also, before they played us, Utd had only conceded 3 in 10 - 6 in 2 now.

[Is It On....]

3-3 dundee utd

Just noticed that Morton are 5 behind DUFC with a game in hand..si they may start having to look over their shoulders..

[SRHibs]

At a place like that I couldn't care less if we had 10% possession and 1 shot on goal. 1-0 Hibs is all that matters. Good result.:aok:

[high bee]

Thank God for that. With a bit of luck let's hope that that's the last time we have to see that sh***y ground for a good few years.

I think Dumbarton will stay up this year ;)

[Hibernia&Alba]

Six points is a nice wee lead. It's in our own hands.

[SonOfDavidFrancey]

Apologies for my back to the future act earlier. Definitely five o'clock now. Delighted that it was Nade that missed the sitter.

[H18 SFR]

Commons last game according to his agent via Chick Young.

[O'Rourke3]

Result ground out. Job done. Well done Hibs :agree:

[The Captain....]

This fixture was always a potential banana skin after the highs of last weeks performance against Utd. Glad we showed the character required to see that out and increase our league lead to six points.

[SonOfDavidFrancey]

Chick young reporting Commons has played last match in a hibs jersey - Gordon said Young had sat next to commons agent throughout the afternoon.

[Hibernia&Alba]

Commons last game according to his agent via Chick Young.

That would be a real shame; he could be the difference. However, he's too good for the Championship.

[Blaster]

3 points

Next!

[Pete]

All we can do is win.

United dropping points is nice but even if they win most of their games there's nothing they can do if we win all of ours.

Let's get the party started next week. :-D

It's a crap, bobbly pitch against a team happy to frustrate. They've had big results against Dundee United and other teams in the top half of the table this season.

Any other wise cracks you want to make after a decent win?

[BullsCloseHibs]

Very good result for Hibs today at a clarty stadium

[inglisavhibs]

A good win, think people underestimate just how hard it is to go to a park like that and win by actually playing football.
It's always the way after a really good performance. Many fans think the next game against weaker opposition is going to be easy. Neil Lennon will be delighted with the win and even more delighted with the United draw. There is still a long way to go with many tricky fixtures to come,including the next one at Queens on the dreaded astro pitch.

[emerald green]

I wasn't at the game, but from what I've heard so far I think a bit of praise is due to the Hibs defence and it's young goalkeeper for another clean sheet today.

And a big shout out to Nade for missing a sitter near the end too. GIRUY.

You "skoosh" this league by repeatedly beating teams 1-0, not dropping points at Dumbarton and keeping your head when things aren't going your way.

The people who were/ are demanding 4 and 5 nil wins every week know nothing about football and have presumably never seen what it was that made all the big teams the major forces in every league in every country.

Exactly. All this 'we need to score more goals', 'we need to beat teams 4/5-0' is a lot of rubbish. Rangers won the league in the second half of last season by beating teams 1/2-0 every week after the new year. The chasing pack will drop points. Leagues are won on tight defences, not by scoring plenty goals.

[jacomo]

It's a pity QOS didn't show a bit more character at 3-1 up but there you go.

Interesting how the table has changed since New Year though. Morton are closing on Utd again while we are building more of a cushion.

Not the two horse race anymore.

The title is ours to lose. Losing one game and drawing two from now should be at least enough to do it. We are good enough for that with our squad, coach, support and management

I think we require a maximum 40 points from 15 games to win the league. I work out United can only achieve 84 points.

[Bishop Hibee]

Tam McManus tweeting that Commons won't be back at Hibs. Great cameo by him. Bigger impact in a short time than Shinnie all season. Henderson, GMS or Christie may be possible.

[The Leith Dutch]

With a game in hand too.
Played early next month against Raith.

Could make it interesting - not sure whether pressure to both stay ahead of Morton and keep up with us would improve or frighten Utd.

Either way 6 points with 15 games to play is a very nice cushion.

Commons has scored a couple of vital goals for sure, though I wouldn't say he has exactly ripped things up, that's not a criticism because he clearly lacks match fitness. With SJM, Fyvie and ( hopefully ) McGeouch all fit and young Scott Martin certainly looking good enough for the first team we should have more than enough to win against any team in this division.

The one thing that stood out for me as far as Commons goes is his determination to get into the box when we have the ball wide in the final 3rd .... his goal today was a prime example of that. Its an example every one of our midfield players needs to follow, its no coincidence that Commons has a good strike rate for Celtic and has scored twice for us, whereas our goals return from midfield is average at best usually.

If we could replace him with the legend that is Liam Henderson or the very good, very young and very hungry Ryan Christie I would be more than happy.

[Nicho87]

My reaction from today is we will play a hell of a lot better and lost or get beat. Tight horrible bobbly pitch. Fyvie back was great to see. Forster coming on was helpful, few late scares but overall a nice ugly 1-0 away win where others have faltered. Sat inf front of some dumbarton share holder i assume who thought he was kevin bridges. Total balloon. Well done queens too.

[Jim44]

McManus is just yet another blethering pundit. If they're going to make difinitive statements about players, they should qualify it with a few reasoned comments as to why they've arrived at their conclusions. If Alan Preston were to say that Commons will be back at Hibs, would he be believed? They're all nondescript chancers trying to manufacture a bit of streed cred in a sea of media manure.

Good detailed highlights they looked good and unlucky not to get something. They should take a lot of credit as looked like they played good passing football and not just battling.

Excellent presentation, hibs under the cosh for periods, but feel Boyle should have done better when he went through to go one on one with the keeper. As to the ground tidy but 3 unpopulated sides give it the look of a well deveoped junior club.

The site slowed noticeably for about 10 minutes max yesterday immediately after full time when there was likely a lot of F5 bashing going on. Guests were booted well before kick off yesterday and the site ran perfectly well with the exception of the afore mentioned 10 minutes.

I'll happily listen to criticism/opinions when it's merited but the last couple of weeks it's been totally undeserved. Last week there was a problem that was outwith our control and this weeks the sites performance was fine. It's no wonder Daves been short with you.
